A certain brokers rang ME today to ask what I was doing about selling the P32. They seem quite keen to get some more boats on their books.

Why not let Norfolk Yacht Agency have your boat over winter to sell. I am sure they would move her to Horning (depending on air draft)if you wanted her away from Brundall.

I did have a look at Finola at Brooms the other week- nice boat and the brokerage chap was very helpful (I've sent you a PM). They do have another Crown in now, which looks to be in very good condition, so there is some direct competition. NYA also have a Crown - not so good, although there have been some attempts to spruce it up. Boats have been selling very quickly from NYA recently, suspect the good weather has played a part. Good luck selling her on the Thames.

UuuPpp's. Sorry did not know it was your dearly beloveds name.

I think Mucky Farter has a lovely sounding ring to her name, quite poetic and just trips off the tongue.

Hi Colin fraid I'm trucking her back . As you know I'm the first one to deter people from trunking boats and encouraging their use, ask Nick & Joanne, However there are several reasons why I have to truck

She has to go up to non tidal Thames so would have to arrange temp licence and all that.

The cost of me flying home getting to Brundall, plus the costs of the trip (fuel berthing etc) would just add to the costs to date resultant from taking her to Brundall. As you know that was Feb seven months and £2400.00 spent with Brooms later and still not sold.

The broker has managed to get her on a return trip on Tuesday next (their delivering another boat to Brooms that day) so the transport cost is halved, obviously lift out and back to add.

So as much as I would love to have the pleasure of you company along with Jim I cant. Nevr mind come out to Spain next year and I'll take you on me new boat. Clive
